02Density altitude and turboprop runway margins

Standard temperature at 302 ft is about 14°C. Every 1,000 ft of density altitude adds roughly 8 percent to a turboprop's takeoff distance and 5 percent to its landing distance. The table uses Piper Meridian book numbers (2,438 ft takeoff and 2,110 ft landing over a 50 ft obstacle at sea level, ISA, max weight) as a reference airplane; heavier turboprops and light jets scale the same way from their own POH figures.

Conditions	Density altitude	Takeoff est.	Landing est.	Landing × 1.5
Standard day (ISA, 14°C)	302 ft	2,497 ft	2,142 ft	3,213 ft
Warm day (ISA +10)	1,502 ft	2,731 ft	2,268 ft	3,403 ft
Hot day (ISA +20)	2,702 ft	2,965 ft	2,395 ft	3,593 ft
35°C afternoon	2,774 ft	2,979 ft	2,403 ft	3,604 ft

Planning aid only. Even on a 35°C afternoon the longest runway (08/26, 5,003 ft) covers a Meridian-class turboprop's landing distance with a 50 percent margin (3,604 ft needed). The percentages are a generic rule of thumb applied to one reference airplane, not certified performance data for any specific aircraft, and the runway size categories describe the runway, not your airplane's suitability. Verify with the approved flight manual before every flight.

03Nearby fields with 5,000 ft or more

Useful as alternates, as fuel stops when the price at KBXG is high, or as the longer runway on a hot afternoon.
